Now Canada Post won’t let me start a claim
Posted here last week about a delayed package and still haven’t received it after 13 days.
Opened a ticket as the receiver, they said if by Aug.13 they don’t have it, they will message with next steps. After a week they closed it with no answer and just said to get the sender to open a ticket to start a CLAIM. I tried calling again and a different agent now gave me a date of Aug.31 as the deadline for them to tell me what happened. (I doubt they are investigating at all since it seems i’m told something different every time)
I did so, as the sender is a family member, when trying to open the claim last week the agent on the phone asked them to wait until September 3rd, another random date. They said no, they would rather get this over with, so the agent asked to wait to start the claim until monday or tuesday (today - Aug 18).
The sender tried to start the claim today, the agents refused to start it saying they have to wait until the 31st. Total BS, as I’ve seen numerous posts saying they started a claim while their packages were still “delayed”. I was told by CP themselves to get the sender to start a claim and I also got advice from a former delivery employee to start my claim because they would rather find the package than have to pay the sender. YES, the package is insured by the sender as well…
What can I do about this?
